Acer recently unveiled the Acer Connect Vero W6m mesh router, its
first eco-friendly Wi-Fi 6E router that incorporates post-consumer recycled
(PCR) materials in its chassis and features an Eco mode for efficient energy consumption.
The router is powered by a quad-core 2 Ghz processor and includes a bundle of enhanced
connectivity, coverage, and security features, including Wi-Fi 6E Tri-Band AXE7800[[i],2]
capability and compliance with Radio Equipment Directive (RED) EN 303 645 articles
3.3 Cyber Security Standards.
“We are thrilled to expand Acer’s portfolio of network
devices with the launch of the Acer Connect Vero W6m Wi-Fi 6E mesh router,
engineered with support for Wi-Fi 6E tri-band connectivity to provide swift and
secure connections with vast network coverage within any home or office
locations,” said Wayne Ma, General Manger, IoB, IT Products Business, Acer Inc.
“The performance-driven router is also the latest addition to our growing Vero
line of eco-conscious products, embodying Acer’s commitment to fulfilling its environmental
responsibility and helping minimize carbon footprint.”
Fast
and Seamless Wi-Fi 6E Connections
The Acer Connect Vero W6m, Acer’s first eco-friendly router, comes with Wi-Fi 6E connectivity
and conforms with security standards set by the European Commission’s Radio
Equipment Directive. Capable of supporting Wi-Fi 6E Triband (2.4 Ghz/5 Ghz/6
Ghz[1,2]) AXE7800 throughput, the device provides speeds of up to
7.8 Gbps to deliver fast, stable internet connections when online. The Wi-Fi 6E
router can also be paired with up to 4 units and features impressive network ranges
of up to 465 m2 on a dual mesh system and up to 930 m2 on
a quad mesh system to help eliminate dead spots in larger coverage areas[1,3].
Powered by a quad-core 2 GHz A53 processor with 1 GB LPDDR RAM and 4 GB memory
capacity, the Acer Connect Vero W6m is engineered to keep up with high-bandwidth
requirements.
The new Vero router also gives great importance to data
protection and security as it is the first Wi-Fi 6E mesh router to pass EU EN
303 645 (RED) Cyber Security Standards. It also comes with a dedicated WPS button
for effortless network security setups. The router is further optimized with
intelligent device/application recognition and standard LAN and WAN ports for
added connection flexibility.
Eco-Conscious
Inside and Out
Designed with the environment in mind, Acer’s commitment to reducing
CO2 emissions is reflected in every aspect of the device, from its
chassis to energy-efficient features. It also utilizes 100% recyclable paper in
its packaging.
The Acer Connect Vero W6m’s minimalistic and compact
aesthetic is made with 30% PCR plastic and painted with a cobblestone gray
finish to let it blend in with any office or home setup. The dedicated Eco mode
function optimizes the router’s power consumption, along with other connected
devices by managing their sleep time when not in use and efficiently regulating
its data frequency distribution.
